Here`s several options for you, that you may or may not have considered; do a conversion to Canadian CPL or the FAA commercial (and get a CFI). SA also seems to have some good flying, and from what I understand the conversion isn`t too bad. How about the Caribbean for a couple of years? Fact is, there aren`t too many small operators in Europe anymore. Too many regulations which favor airlines hasn`t helped either. Look towards the places where small operators are needed. That`s the tip of the day!
How to find them? Flight International has an Airline index, worldwide, which is a lot more than just airliners. It lists general info which can be useful to help you in your hunt for that first job. You`ll quickly find that a lot of operators have several types of aircraft, some of which you probably could qualify directly to. Or perhaps fly as copilot to build total time before given command of a small twin.... and the snowball is rollng
BTW, what`s the big deal about flying a jet until you`re drop dead tired when you could actually be having a blast flying something else until you figure out when it`s time to come home and settle down? Give that one a thought or two.
